I love adding shimmer to just about anything. I am still drawn to shimmery things just like I was when I was a kid. By painting these wine glasses with glitter I can now hold both wine and sparkles in my hand at once. The combination makes every sip is that much more tasteful. I will use the silver for red, and the pink for white.

Confetti is one of my very favorite things. So naturally, funfetti cupcakes are high on my list as well. And since I am constantly looking for any excuse to finish off the bowl of cake batter or eat a bite of cookie dough instead of a cookie, when someone did something nice for me this past weekend, I knew I had to jump at the opportunity to make and give them cupcakes. This was my first time to make icing by pouring cream into a bowl and whipping it with a hand mixer. The result was light and fluffy funfetti cupcakes.
